Re: The Ao No Exorcist Romance thread

i have been a fan of shiemi and rin since the very first time rin saw shiemi in the garden. however, Shiemi has a crush on Yukio and Yukio has a crush on Shiemi, and even if Rin has a crush on Shiemi too, as soon as he realize his brother is serious about her, he will give up on her immediately. after all i believe Rin loves yukio (as a brother) more than anything else, so he would give up this girl just for yukio to be happy ..

Re: The Ao No Exorcist Romance thread

To me it seems like what Shiemi has is not a real crush (so I see it from the anime only; I didn't read the manga). What she has towards Yukio is respect and awe, while what she has towards Rin is more like a feeling of having a brother, or friendship... Yukio looks like he has something special towards Shiemi, while Rin seems to react the same way towards all women. XD

Agreed!

Disagreed. I think Yukio behaves like an older brother or sensei towards Shiemi. He would do that to every one of his students, but Shiemi needs more care. And Rin, even though in the anime filler he was behaving like he wanted nothing but to be surrounded by pretty girls, he's actually nothing like that. Shiemi is the only girl he ever though about and because he's always been an outsider, he doesn't really know what to do with the feelings he's having for her.

I can understand it from that point of view, considering who Yukio is. But somehow the way he blushed around Shiemi on the episode where we met Shiemi for the first time felt a bit different to me. As about Rin, that is usually one of problems of the main character on many stories. I agree on that one, though, that he would definitely find someone special to him. I'm just not really sure that it's gonna be Shiemi yet, as there are still more stories and episodes to come.

Re: The Ao No Exorcist Romance thread

Shiemi is the Sakura of Ao no Exorcist. That says it all. Although I, for one, don't hate either of them, I admit they can be quite annoying and I understand when people think they are, uh, unpleasant.

If anything, then Rin/Kamiki. That has a potential to be quite entertaining.
Guilty pleasures... hm, I have one such pairing (seems like a lot of ppl do, huh), but I refrain from stating it x)

Re: The Ao No Exorcist Romance thread

For someone who read only two chapters of Naruto - could you explain why do you think Shiemi is like Sakura, please? I'm a bit interested in Naruto pairings too, but not interested enough to read the manga for that

I think what fanatik meant is that they're both seem to be weak, useless & a hindrance in a real battle.
(but I could be wrong! Sorry if I misinterpreted what you mean fanatik!)

I disagree though, in Naruto, Sakura grows up to be physically strong & more than capable in battles. But she's still emotionally dumb, insensitive & immature though.(even after 3 years of growth!)

Shiemi is still weak, but I think she is maturing excellently. Sure she cries a lot, but she identifies her weaknesses, is sensitive to the needs of others, acknowledges her mistakes & strives to be a better person.

I don't really mind that Shiemi is weak. I don't really like the fact that Kazue made her that way just so Shiemi can fulfill the cliched role of the weak damsel in distress in the beginning but in recent chapters I like the way that Shiemi is developing. Not everyone can be strong but everyone can strive to be the best version of themselves.(and Sakura just fails at this IMO).

Just like Rin says, it's better to have a variety of people in the world, you know?

Yeah, I have a soft spot for Shiemi. She just reminds me so much of Hachi from NANA. In the beginning I was ready to hate the type of character that they're playing, but I soon realize that they both are making mistakes, learning from those mistakes & striving to be better.

Re: The Ao No Exorcist Romance thread

In manga? Nope, nothing. Just bromance being threatened by the evil forces of disappointment and fear. I love Toudou since he's so fun to write, but nope, no romance for him (it would be seriously icky too, considering that old man's manipulations.)

In anime? They are pushing the Rin/Shiemi to disgustingly bad levels. Shiemi, Rin freaking kicked you away! Why are you still okay with him?! Also, the whole "isn't this wrong" just fell flat - as exorcists, your jobs include exorcising malignant demons. Do the math, Shiemi. You're not that stupid. Kamiki is really after chasing Rin, even though that was something that she refused to do when Amaimon attacked them since she "couldn't die there".

well don't use the anime as an example, they ruined quite a few things :/
I'm definitely in for Shiemi x Rin, looks like they feel a lot for each other. It may not be love right now but it it seems very likely that they will get to this point sooner or later
